I possde a GIBSON LES PAUL STANDARD 2004 colored "vintage sunburst" and equipped with microphones "Burstbucker pro". The handle is of type "50" which is closest to the handle of the original Les Pauls in '58 and '59 Annes.

UTILIZATION

The quality wood (mahogany neck and body of South American, Canadian table Saddle) helps sustain exceptionel of this guitar, but also makes it quite heavy. This problem is fairly easy ressoudre: just use a belt wide enough and well Molton. My neck, despite Whether it's a '50 MODEL, is not at all heavy and can play fast solo's with no problem. The finish of the guitar is superb.

SOUNDS

I possde also a Gibson Les Paul Custom. The distortion of the guitar is trs, trs "fat" and "loud", individualism perfect sound but in concert it's a little lost in the shuffle.
For cons, the Les Paul Standard a micro's (Burstbucker pro) much less powerful than the custom. These are burstbuckers conus to reproduce the sound of Les Paul Standard '58 (so sought-. It is mainly the average frquences dominate (making the sound "nasal", but be careful not to sense pjoratif the term).
In beginners, j'tais a little by his (compare my custom) but as measuring rptitions and concerts, I have learned appreciate it. Indeed, in the tumult gnral group, I finally sound that is present and well Dlimi. The frequencies do not mlangent with bass, vocals & drums. The solo's are distinct while retaining its warm and pleasant! The microphone allows a less powerful as his bluesy, jazzy and the (hard) rock, just push the gain of the amp a little further.
The clean is clean and friendly.
INFINITE SUSTAIN AND IS !!!!!!

OVERALL OPINION

Well, I play again rock hard (70s and 80s). This guitar is idalie for me. I could do without (it is CHRE, but I do not regret this purchase)
The combination "Gibson" and "marshall lamp" is perfect, I play on two TSL 100 in Stereo and the power of this set gives you a real "kick". It's not for nothing that great guitarists use this combination (Gary Moore, Angus Young, Slash, Jimmy Page, ... and many others).
I had Fenders, Ibanez, Music Man, Epiphone and others, but nothing beats the Les Paul Standard (my opinion )!!!!
